The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is desperately trying to rehabilitate its controversial roadside drug testing program. On Monday, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) issued a report outlining the reforms that NHTSA has proposed to address motorist concerns with the National Roadside Survey.

The last survey in 2014 relied upon police roadblocks that forced motorists to stop against their will so that they could be encouraged to “voluntarily” take a drug test. Passive alcohol sensors were also used to search vehicles for traces of alcohol without the motorist’s consent. The heavy-handed tactics triggered a lawsuit and the ire of congressional lawmakers who banned the use of federal funding for any future surveys.  Continue reading “Feds Try To Restore Confidence In Drugged Driver Survey”

The Defense Department’s 1033 program has allowed law enforcement to muddy the water on the distinction between police force and military force. Given the right reasoning (most commonly cited: Wars on Terror/Drugs), police departments are allowed to pick up surplus military gear, often for free (utilizing DHS grants) and start pretending they’re an occupying force, rather than public servants.

This came to a head following protests in Ferguson, Missouri, where viewers around the world were treated to the sight of local law enforcement rolling up on residents in mine-resistant vehicles while clad in gear that made officers look far more like soldiers than cops. This prompted a rollback of the 1033 program by Obama, limiting the sort of gear police departments could obtain to more innocuous surplus, like computers and furniture.   Continue reading “Police Department With Eight Full-Time Officers Acquired 31 Military Vehicles Thru DoD’s Surplus Program”

WEB Notes: True story. I once worked with a gentleman (older man) who happened to lean to the left. During conversations, I just could never get him to understand it is not right to take from my pocket and give to someone else…

So one day I told him,

“Hey Mr. Noname.”

Mr. Noname: Yeah!

YouTube will add information from Wikipedia to videos about popular conspiracy theories to provide alternative viewpoints on controversial subjects, its CEO said today. YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki said that these text boxes, which the company is calling “information cues,” would begin appearing on conspiracy-related videos within the next couple of weeks.

Wojcicki, who spoke Tuesday evening at a panel at the South by Southwest Interactive festival in Austin, showed examples of information cues for videos about the moon landing and chemtrails. “When there are videos that are focused around something that’s a conspiracy — and we’re using a list of well-known internet conspiracies from Wikipedia — then we will show a companion unit of information from Wikipedia showing that here is information about the event,” Wojcicki said.   Continue reading “YouTube will add information from Wikipedia to videos about conspiracies”

The gun confiscation crowd couldn’t be happier when they saw their main weapon marching down the streets, chanting about abolishing the second article rights. A bunch of adolescent kids who have never been taught to respect, or for that matter, been properly educated about those rights, how they were conceived, and how many have died to protect those rights; ignorant to how they are being manipulated.

Obviously, one needs to rethink American education, bringing young Americans back to the realities of back to earth God given rights concerning firearms and how they will always be a part of American life, whether they like it or not. Young American don’t dictate American rights to the older adult American Nationals, never going to happen, all they are doing is wasting their youth while trying to redesign those God given rights, hundreds of thousands died for. Many of whom were young kids such as themselves.  Continue reading “School Kids Becoming Gun Confiscation Tools – Rethink Education Process”

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Senate voted 67 to 31 on Wednesday to ease bank rules, bringing Congress a step closer to passing the first rewrite of the Dodd-Frank reform law enacted after the 2007-2009 global financial crisis.

The draft legislation now heads to the U.S. House of Representatives where Republicans in the majority say they want to add more provisions to ease financial regulations. Those changes have some of the bill’s backers worried that late alterations could upend the deal struck in the Senate between Republicans and Democrats.   Continue reading “Senate approves bill rewriting post-crisis bank rules”

I really hope you understand this.

It is not a fantasy. It isn’t science fiction. It isn’t satire.

It is Brave New World, but not the Huxley novel. It’s happening now.

It’s a published study that appears on the website of the prestigious Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America.   Continue reading “Outrageous chemical-dosing experiment to force friendship toward migrants”

Daily Caller

The Daily Caller’s Peter Hasson recently broke the exclusive story that the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is “policing content on YouTube as part of YouTube’s ‘Trusted Flaggers’ program.”

Let me tell you why this news is scary as hell — from personal experience.

My name is Trey Radel. I’m a trilingual, well-traveled lover of all cultures and an easygoing kind of guy. I don’t say this to toot my own horn; I say it because underneath my passion for culture — as well as love and fascination with political foreign policy — is apparently something more sinister: I’m a “hater” and “extremist,” in league with murderers.   Continue reading “How The Southern Poverty Law Center Attacks And TERRORIZES Conservatives: A Firsthand Account From A Former Member Of Congress”

The Hill

The House on Wednesday easily passed a measure to strengthen school safety and security, a vote that coincided with the one-month anniversary of the mass shooting at a high school in Parkland, Fla.

The bill does not include gun control measures despite the growing calls for action on that front. Students across the country staged walkouts Wednesday on gun violence, with one of the protests taking place outside the Capitol.   Continue reading “House passes school safety bill”
